New hair, new outfit.

Sunday, February 21st, 2010

It’s been a little while since I uploaded a gothic lolita outfit post, so here’s some photos of what I wore this weekend.

The best full-body shot I could get was on the stairs, in the full-length mirror. Not the best ever, but you see the general idea:

It’s my old faithful black and white skirt again!

recently, on the EGL communities there was a lot of distaste expressed for black socks with white shoes, but honestly I like it.

I changed my hair. It’s pink underneath now instead of blue. And I curled it instead of straightening it, just for a little variety.

The next photo is another face-shot, because just before leaving I decided to change the bow I was wearing. So here’s the same thing, but with different head wear (and I have my coat on).

A quick photo of the full effect, with coat.

Sorry, for the sulky face, totally unintentional!

I have one more bonus photo, which was accidental and wrong, but still turned out quite itneresting and I like it anyway.

How regal, how suave! If only I knew how to do that whenever I wanted! :p

Happy Pancake Day!

Tuesday, February 16th, 2010

I realised that I never post about everyday life anymore, and that’s probably because now that I’m not living in Japan I personally don’t find everyday life very interesting.
Mostly, I’ve been looking for jobs with little to no success. Over the last 3 months I’ve had uncountable rejection letters, and two interviews, neither of which came to anything. Still, the hunt continues!

Today, is Pancake Day. And pancakes are arguably my favourite food ever. So, this morning for breakfast I had pancakes:

Yes, that is one strawberry pancake, and one bacon pancake.
And the same again, except bigger, for lunch!

Yesterday, I went to the UK Premiere screening of the new Evangelion films; Eva 1.0 and Eva 2.0.
Being and Eva newbie, I can’t compare it to the original, but I can say that it was pretty fantastic and I enjoyed it fully. There was a lot of people there, and a lot of familiar faces from other events and such. There was a great atmosphere, and everyone seemed very impressed by the films. (and so they should! They were great)
There are mixed opinions on the new character, Makinami Mari, but I personally really liked her.
Here’s a wee head-and-shoulders image of her with her pink plug suit and red glasses.

you know, my glasses were very similar to those.

Over the weekend, I went with Bry and his friend Steven, who was visiting from fife to Glasgow Cathedral and the Necropolis. Despite being from this city, I’d only been to the catchedral once before and I’d never been to the Necropolis before, so it was quite interesting.
Wikipedia informs me that the necropolis has aproximately 3500 tombs in it.
Quite impressive I think.
